While purchasing power levels, compared with a year earlier, had been going down steadily for sev eral months, this month's survey shows the real income level has gone up to $1.01. This means, In vestors Syndicate said, that the average consumer in October had $1 01 for each dollar the year be fore. While prices of all cost-of-living items continue to rise, various types of income are also still on the upgrade, Investors Syndicate re veals. Significant shifts are seen in both prices and income. While food had been going up faster than other items, last month “miscel laneous" costs shot up more than food, shelter or clothing. At the same time, while farm income con tinues to increase fastest, salaries and investment income—which had been lagging behind farmers' and wage earners’ revenue — .have ad vanced sharply "The rapid shifts in the 'real income' index and the cost-of-living items.” said E E. Crabb, chairman and president of Investors Syndi cate. “indicate the extreme change ability of present conditions. The recovery of the purchasing power level, however, again demonstrate« the basic soundness of our eco> •my."
